How does it sound in your head (assuming you don't know me)?
Jolanthe.
Over the years, I've been called such a variety of things...some comically funny. Today, McKenna went and got the mail and I had her practice reading the address labels to see who each piece was for.
Rick (check).
Ernest (my dad who is living with us - check).
Jolanthe.....umm...Mom? What does this say?
She knows my name, but forgot that the way she usually spells it is M-O-M.
For the record, my name is "technically" said Yo-lon-ta (I'd put one of those smiley face circles above the "o" in my name, but can't figure out how to do it).
Can you say it?
Yo-lon-ta? -ta? Uh Oh. Have we been disgracing your Dutch heritage by saying "-tha"?
ReplyDeletehaha, cute; I was wondering how you pronounced it. it's a pretty name.
ReplyDeleteno. I remember Christin saying your name and I was like "who?" :) Even now that I know the right way of saying it I still find myself pronouncing it wrong more often than not (cuz you know, you are SO often the topic of conversation around here) ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat does your name mean? It is very pretty, especially when you pronounce it your way. :)
I'm thinking that I have to downpat by this time. But hey...maybe not? ;)
ReplyDeleteWill the next blog entry be a discussion on your middle name? This could be fun!
ReplyDeleteLater Lanty...hehehe
Thankfully, Christin had filled me in on this one!
ReplyDeleteBefore that I was saying:
Joel-lan-the
